Abolanle (Bola) Aloluwaloba, NCPS

Abolanle (Bola) Aloluwaloba is a qualified counsellor (NCPS) who creates a non-judgemental and personal environment where people can examine the less conscious parts of their thoughts, feelings, and behaviour. She draws on practical therapeutic methods to help clients gain insight and develop new ways of coping with difficult situations.

Many people seek her support for a wide range of concerns, including bereavement and loss, anxiety and fear, life changes such as divorce or redundancy, relationship difficulties, and past or present abuse - whether sexual, physical, mental, or financial. She also works with issues of confidence and self-esteem, addictions, depression, and eating disorders.

Her role is to help clients find clarity and perspective so they can build healthier relationships with themselves and others and manage both their internal and external worlds more effectively. Over time clients are supported to access their own strengths and internal resources, which can make it easier to make the changes needed to improve wellbeing. Bola practices in a client-centred and collaborative way, adapting different counselling approaches to suit each person while emphasising the client’s commitment to the therapeutic process. NCPS is noted alongside her qualification as a professional counselling credential.

There can be challenging moments when exploring parts of the self that may feel painful or unacceptable, but if a client is willing to take that risk within the therapeutic space, counselling can bring deeper self-understanding and greater awareness and meaning.
